Melzer installs 6th RFID manufacturing line in US

Labels and Labeling thumbnail


Melzer Maschinenbau GMbH of Schwelm, Germany, has installed its 6th SL series of Smart Label, Tag, and Ticket manufacturing systems in the United States. Sold through their US agent, New York-based  Innovative Equipment Ltd, the SL series is designed from the ground up to address all of the issues converters face when integratiing HF and UHF RFID inlays into labels, tags, and tickets.
Utilizing Melzer’s patented in-line selection technology, SL users are able to read and verify the functionality of each inlay prior to its application to the final substrate. Those deemed defective are removed from the process before application, yet each and every label, tag, or ticket will still receive a functioning inlay.
Optional equipment includes a proprietary hot melt application system for spot or full coating of the finished inlays, a punching system and magazine delivery for ISO sized cards, add-on modules for the production of luggage tags, and special configurations for exotic web constructions or extra layers.
